> capitalism better for all
By definition, that is impossible. Capitalism is defined as the use of capital to generate a return in the form of profit. It is legislated greed. If you emphasize the greater good (reducing profits to distribute wealth), it is no longer capitalism.

A simple line graph would be much more effective. This is just hideous.

>machines will have human level intelligence then exponentially increase from there.
There is absolutely NO evidence for this. Intelligence is not a continuum like the speed of a car.

Reply to In the future, any computer you lay your hands on will be your computer. by ApocalypseSpokesman
It is a terrifying thought that people are so trusting to corporations with their innermost secrets. There is a lot of personal info on my computers and on separate hard drives for good reason. My (and my wife's) art, music, writing, finances, legal, etc., not to mention our homemade Jetsons/Flintstones mashup porn videos. Fuck giving all that to AWS.
I'm guessing that you are young and have no data of value, or no value of privacy.

Reply to Study finds age-related macular degeneration strongly associated with serious forms of cardiovascular disease, heart damage from heart failure and heart attacks by Living_And_Alive
“For the first time, we have been able to connect these specific high-risk cardiovascular diseases to a specific form of AMD, the one with subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDDs),”
I really miss true journalism.

Reply to This computing breakthrough just transferred the entire internet’s traffic in 1 second by izumi3682
The headline is nonsensical. When you're talking about bits per second, saying "the entire internet's traffic in one second" makes no sense.
"A single chip transferred the equivalent of the entire internet's traffic" explains it.

Reply to comment by slouchingtoepiphany in When a human dies (from natural causes), are there certain parts of the body that remain "alive" longer than the rest of the body? How long does it usually take for those parts to "die" and for the entire body to be considered fully dead? by flash17k
Hair and fingernails are dead cells aren't they? They may continue to grow if more cells die, but they are not alive. Am I wrong?

What grinds my gears is Musk's habit of blatantly over naming everything he makes so it sounds much better than it is:
Autopilot is not.
Hyperloop is not hyper anything( nor a loop)
Starship goes to maybe ONE planet, and
Optimus is anything but.
He is so full of BS.

Not true. Humanoids will be very useful in using equipment and environments that were designed for humans.
